Just to clarify, will fixing this situation include affected words such as class and passage getting restored to readable forms? Nearly every page of the play-by-post game I'm running, and of course every single posted character sheet, is negatively impacted right now.

See, this is why I think and always try to remember mods and to the larger extent, the admins like Matt and Farcaster, are really so laudable. They get complaints, sometimes angry, very nearly accusatory and condemning ones, and they work on fixing the issue at hand - hearing the CONTENT of the complaints themselves, and not the emotion or the snideness with which they're uttered. Admins that keep their eyes on the bottom line - fixing things that aren't working, and knowing that "what's broken" is "the members are unhappy" - those are the hallmarks of truly good admins.

Ongoing substring filtering

I thought the issues with the word filter were largely resolved, other than some isolated cases I pointed out in my earlier post, but apparently it's still actively at work. I am unable to properly attribute a quotation, as shown in this post http://www.penandpapergames.com/foru...972#post143972

One of the games I am currently running from this site is set in contemporary Japan. I am concerned that I will be unable to properly render many Romanized Japanese words and proper names due to the word filter. Setting aside the question of whether an automated word filter's existence itself is justified, the primary issue I am running into is that the word filter continues to inappropriately act on substrings.
